Published: May 30, 1987

Mr. T, the television and film actor, at his seven-acre estate in Lake Forest, a suburb of Chicago recognized for seven consecutive years as ''Tree City, U.S.A.'' by the National Arbor Day Foundation. In recent weeks he has cut down about a hundred oak trees, left, around his mansion, angering his neighbors. It was reported he suffers from allergies and thought removing the trees would help.
